The pop singer has been dating Peazer since they met during his time on the British version of 'The X Factor' in 2010.

His representative was forced to deny rumours they had become engaged in July, and now the couple has allegedly decided to part ways due to Payne's busy schedule with the band.

A source tells Britain's The Sun newspaper, "It was getting impossible to keep it going. They were apart so much and everything that was being said to Danielle on Twitter (by Payne's fans) was getting to her.

"They both still care for each other and will remain friends, but it all just got too much."
